Awarded Airbnb Super host status in April 2020

Aug '24 The Hen Hoose is a gorgeous little hideaway, we loved relaxing here on our way up to the highlands and the sound of the cows was delightful. Will definitely return here. 

Aug '24 Colene's Airbnb was perfect! A great location, wonderful amenities, and so many thoughtful touches. She really has thought of everything. The location is really great for a ton of activities, you won't be bored, but it's also a relaxing spot if you want to just hang and unwind. We loved having a chance to meet all the animals and play in the play area! We hope to have the chance to come back one day

Aug '24 Our family (kids age 9 and 12) spent 4 wonderful days in the Coo Shed and absolutely loved our stay! It was so light filled, calming and comfortable inside, and we all slept wonderfully as it was perfectly quiet at night. Outside, my kids' favorite activity was playing with the very friendly chickens. There was also a very good and large collection of family board games for the evenings. Colene was a wonderful host - responsive, kind, helpful - and I would absolutely recommend staying here.

Aug '24 We loved out short stay at The Coo Shed. We traveled a long way to get there with two children aged 5 and 7. The converted barn was perfect for our family of 4. The boys loved interacting with Colene's Chickens, Horses and Alpacas. She made an extra effort to find some time for the kids to feed the farm animals during a busy trip. The barn was comfy, clean and homely. The surroundings are beautiful and perfect to experience the Scottish outdoors.

Aug '24 Great location for agritourism. We loved the opportunity to feed the alpacas and enjoyed seeing the other farm animals. We also appreciated the goodies. Excellent streaming on the TV, Wifi and tea for cozy, rainy days. Great shower water pressure and washer worked great. This was also within driving distance to the airport. Definitely recommend!

Aug '24 We had a wonderful 2-night stay on Colene's farm with our two young daughters. The dairy parlour was spotless and so beautifully presented. It had everything we needed and was a great location for our stop-off on route to the Hebrides. The farm was perfect for our children, with a play area and lots of animals. Colene invited them to feed the Alpacas, which they loved. Colene was a brilliant host, very attentive and thoughtful about the kids. Would highly recommend a stay here!

July '24 A perfect place to chill out yet within east reach of lots of restaurants and activities. The Hen Hoose is super comfy with lots of little extras. The view from the hot tub is lovely. This is a perfect choice for an animal lover- meeting the alpacas was great. Hosts were responsive and friendly. Look forward to coming back.

July '24 We had an excellent stay at the cosy and well-equipped Coo Shed. Colene went above and beyond as a host, and meeting Squinty the chicken was a memorable highlight. The farm and surroundings are stunning.

June '24 We had a great time at The Coo shed. The place had everything we needed. We enjoyed the horses, alpacas, dogs and chickens. We were missing our pets from home. We appreciated the thoughtful decor. Colene was an excellent host, if we are in the area again we will be back.

June '24 The wee hen hoose is a peaceful retreat with spectacular views… inside the hoose itself was just so relaxing the attention detail and style was impeccable. Colene is the perfect host she’s relaxed and welcoming and will endeavour to make your stay as comfortable as possible. I Just loved it. It’s a special wee place 😊

May '24 We had the best time at Colene's Airbnb. The cottage is situated in a beautiful location. It was clean, well looked after and well furnished. Colene and her family were so friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The animals were so inquisitive, gentle and well looked after. We all hope to visit again. Thank you so much!

April '24 One of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. Even better than what we expected from pictures, the space is so cosy and the location is stunning, we loved waking up and seeing the farm animals outside. Hosts are super friendly and made us feel right at home. The location is ideal a few lush restaurants in the town! Would absolutely stay at the Hen Hoose again!

April '24 Fantastic place to stay! And a gem for little people. Lovely bright and peaceful living room, a real bonus on rainy days. We had a brilliant time, we will definitely come back!

April '24 We had a great stay at the Dairy Parlour with our 2 and 4 year olds. They loved seeing the animals each day, feeding the alpacas one morning and they also loved the play area. Colene’s directions were great, it’s such a good location from Glasgow airport and we spent most days around Loch Lomond touring their play areas 😂 The fairy trail at Luss was a good trip out and on the one day it persistently rained we went to Sea Life. I thoroughly recommend this as a place to stay and we will look to come back again in the future.

March '24 Perfect little stay highly recommend this to anyone after a little getaway! Very cosy feel with beautiful scenery.

Feb '24 This place is absolutely outstanding, the views are spectacular. And if you are an animal lover’ this place is very special. Hot tub has views of the sunrise & sunset ‘ also lit by the moon in the evening. Colene & Scott are always on hand & a text away, lovely hosts. We will definitely return. ps toledo the alpaca stole my heart’ adorable.

Nov'23 We had a wonderful time at The Dairy Parlour. It's very cosy, clean and beautiful home. Even our little girl felt very comfortable and happy there. Farm is very peaceful and picturesque with lots of friendly animals 💞 Our host Colene was amazing- very welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend.

Oct'23 Spent an enjoyable few days in the Dairy Parlour while visiting family in the local area. The accommodation was great: all very tastefully done, all the machines and tech working ok, and generous supply of provisions. We all appreciated the quiet rural setting but our toddler daughter was particularly excited to be staying on a farm and to meet the alpacas, horses, chickens etc! Colene a great host, with very clear instructions and communication throughout our stay. Certainly hope to visit again someday!

Sept'23 The Coo Shed residence was a highlight of our trip! Beautiful clean and unique, we adored it and wish we had stayed longer! Colene was friendly, flexible, and welcoming. We even spent a lovely time chatting and she showed my boys around a bit- which they loved. My animal loving kids were overjoyed with alpaca and chickens wandering about just outside our door. A fabulous quiet location option for our travels around Port Glasgow area. Thank you- we will certainly come back if we can return to Scotland again. Highly recommend!

August '23 We had a fantastic stay in the Coo Shed with our dog & 4-month old baby! It had everything we needed for a home-from-home stay whilst visiting family in Erskine. Colene & Scott were both extremely friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to visit nearby towns & Loch Lomond. We'll be back for sure!

July '23 We had a fantastic relaxing stay at The Hen Hoose. It's a beautiful and charming place with everything you need and lots of great places to visit nearby. Colene (and the animals!) made us feel very welcome. We could have sat in the hot tub enjoying the view forever. Couldn't recommend more and we definitely plan to return for a longer stay.

June'23 So glad to have found The Hen Hoose, such beautiful new accommodation. Ideal as it’s not too far from where we live. A great place to get away and just relax. The place is immaculate and has all the amenities you could need. The addition of having a private hot tub area and fire pit was ideal especially in the good weather we had whilst there. It was great to sit out at night. Colene the host was excellent and kept us well informed. Would recommend this place to anyone. Glad we got a booking before it ends up full all the time. I think everyone will love this place.

May '23 The Hen Hoose is adorable. Really beautifully decorated with lots of lovely wee touches. For such a cosy space it has everything you need. Very well equipped. Although located on a farm it is completely private. We didn’t see another person during our stay (although we did enjoy the curious alpacas at the window!). We really enjoyed the hot tub. Colene was a perfect host, lovely welcome and was on hand to answer any questions but otherwise completely unobtrusive. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise. I’m sure we will visit again.

April '23 What a beautiful farm! If you are lucky enough to stay here your mornings will include a view of the wild deer and alpacas lazily laying in the sun. In the evening the spunky chickens will come visit and a talkative cat. The kitchen is stocked with essentials that you may have forgotten, like coffee, tea, milk and butter. There are beautiful touches around the Coo Shed, cute Coo decor and the original stone is exposed in certain areas which really adds to the charm of this place. We are so happy we were able to stay there!

March '23 Another fantastic weekend, amazing meal at local Italian restaurant and amazing host. thank you for an amazing weekend.

Feb'23 Our stay was absolutely excellent, we couldn't fault the accommodation at all. Everything was clean and looked exactly like the photos, and there was even a wee welcome pack which was very appreciated. The area is so calm and peaceful, but you can also enjoy the farm animals, cats, dogs and chickens which roam about. The dogs are very friendly and love a pat or a game of fetch. The chicken's are also very friendly and want to say hello! Thank you so much for such a lovely stay, you made a special occasion so wonderful!

Jan '23 Had a fantastic 2 nights stay at The Dairy Parlour. everything was perfect. Colene was an amazing host and made the kids stay be taking the time to let them meet the alpacas and horses. thank you so much. Would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future.

Dec'22 A great base for catching up with friends. We had a great weekend in the Coo Shed, the main room with wood burner and open plan kitchen was ideal for cooking and eating together. Coleen was very friendly and responsive to any queries, and the location is perfect for a quiet getaway. Thanks!

May 22- Super stay! We loved the Dairy Parlour's big windows with the views across the open countryside and of course the passing cats, dogs, horses & chickens. everything was immaculate. 

May'22 - What a beautiful hidden gem. Wonderful farm that feels like your own little paradise but at the same time you are only a few minutes down the road to pubs, shops and bakers. We had a wonderful stay, the kids absolutely loved the animals, the barn play area and the tyre swing. The cottage was immaculate and everything was cater for. Thank you for a great stay Colene!

April 22 - Second stay in The Coo Shed. Loved it as much as the first time. Peaceful and very comfortable, perfect base for visiting our local family. 

April'22 - Perfect location and host, not to be missed ! Great break away.

March '22 - Absolutely loved our stay with Colene, Scott and family. They made us feel more than welcome from our lovely basket of treats when we arrived to the extra touches like offering fresh eggs! The Coo Shed was perfect for our family, cosy with beautiful surroundings, animals and play area for children. We cannot wait for our next visit.

Feb '22 - Definitely worth a visit! This place is such a gem and we had an idyllic weekend here with our toddler and dog. The cottage is spotless and cozy, well stocked with cooking utensils, and the view is unbeatable. Our dog and toddler left a fair number of nose prints on the windows of The Dairy Parlour from the excitement of seeing the horses, dogs, alpacas, cats and chickens passing by ! What really sets this place apart are all the personal and thoughtful touches, like milk already in the fridge for us and a basket brimming with delicious treats including eggs from the farm hens, and the time our hosts took to tell us about the farm and even help our toddler feed the alpacas! There are lovely fields to go walking in and the climbing toys were a big hit too, especially since they're in an under covered area. We hope we can return someday!

July '21 - Great location and fantastic hosts. Our two grandchildren absolutely loved being able to run around in the garden and meet the animals every day. The Coo Shed was lovely and coupled with the garden, the farm made for a very nice stay.

June '21 - The barn conversion was just perfect for our family staycation. Our six and twelve year old girls fell in love with the animals and their surroundings. The house was very clean and well appointed with everything you need for a short or long stay away. It was areal home from home.
